One of the big things we've changed is the ability to alter the game post-launch. That doesn't sound like a cool feature, it sounds simple - it's like 'why can't you just release patches?' Well, games don't work that way - you can patch some things, but for others, it's a significant deal, patching is not broad enough to do everything in the game," said Rubin speaking to The Guardian. Security was a big problem in previous games," continued Rubin, "so we've done a whole lot on that to create what we hope is a much more secure game. Part of that is learning from Treyarch's work on Black Ops and being pro-active and aggressive on banning, watching the leader boards, looking for cheaters. So one behind-the-scenes feature allows us to update files, sometimes without even doing a full patch - we can just tweak things like weapon balance, which we could never do before. In the past, we'd put out a game and realise, 'hmm, that's weapon's really over-powered' but there was nothing we could do about it.

The only reason I could see anyone getting upset over this is because of modding.
Has anyone considered that the game was meant to be played through legit? I'm glad they implemented this tbh.

so the game gets worse without patches nice....

horrible for any glitchers... this means EVERY glitch found can be patched quickly... Think about it, if I have a glitch that lets you change your clan tag to anything, normally they wouldn't put out a patch for JUST this... They would wait until the next patch and add it on. If they had a seperate patch for every glitch they fixed, theyd have over 100 patches by now. This means they can do just that now. EVERY glitch they solve will be fixed PROMPTLY...
